Elsa Concha

Hace muchos años. Digamos que en otra vida, conocí a la Elsa Concha. No me acuerdo cuándo ni por qué le decíamos Concha, pero me acuerdo que me hacía mucha gracia. En esa época yo sabía poco de la vida y de mí misma. No entendía muchas cosas, pero aprendía que hay amistades que te cambian la vida, te enseñan el mundo y si luego desaparecen, o desapareces, está bien porque el cariño queda intacto.

Quotes by Sylvia Aguilar-Zéleny  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Porque si cierro los ojos me veo también a mí, pero no como soy ahora, sino como era entonces, chiquita, pendeja, bien lela, viéndola, adorándola. Pendeja.”
Sylvia Aguilar-Zéleny, Basura

“¿Y yo qué sé qué se necesita para sentirse completa? A lo mejor la vida se trata de nunca sentirse completa para tratar de andarse completando por el paso del tiempo. Y en el andarse completando uno descubre cosas de sí misma.”
Sylvia Aguilar-Zéleny, Basura

“Mi tía les demostró lo que nuestra sociedad se niega a entender: una mujer sola es capaz de mucho. De todo.”
Sylvia Aguilar-Zéleny, Basura

“Everyone disliked their partners at some time or another, she knew that. But she’d spent her hours in the dark wondering whether she’d ever liked him. Would it really have been so much worse to spend those years alone? Why did there have to be someone else in the room while she was eating, watching TV, sleeping?”
Nick Hornby, Juliet, Naked

“I understood that as much as I had resisted the outside, as much as I had constricted my life, as much as I had closed and narrowed the channels into me, there were still many takers for the quiet heart.”
Steve Martin, The Pleasure of My Company
tags: love

“People worry about kids playing with guns, and teenagers watching violent videos; we are scared that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands - literally thousands - of songs about broken hearts and rejection and pain and misery and loss.”
Nick Hornby, High Fidelity

“I couldn’t bear to think about the proper future, so I just tried to make things better for the next twenty minutes or so, over and over again.”
Nick Hornby, Slam

“Don’t flirt, have sex, or engage in emotional affairs with your friends’ significant others. This shouldn’t need to be said, but it needs to be said. That significant other is an asshole, and you don’t want to be involved with an asshole who’s used goods. If you want to be with an asshole, get a fresh asshole of your very own. They are abundant.”
Roxane Gay, Bad Feminist
